Funny Poems for a Coach
If school were more like baseball
If School Were More Like Baseball
If school were more like baseball we'd only have to play. We'd hang out in the sunshine and run around all day. We wouldn't have to study. We'd practice and we'd train. And, best of all, they'd cancel whenever there was rain.

Lousy Catcher's Mitt
I bought myself a catcher's mitt so I could catch a ball. But all I ever caught were things I didn't want at all. I caught a fish, I caught a cab; just how I can't explain. I caught my brother telling lies, I even caught a train. I caught a show, I caught a crook, I caught the evening news. I caught my sister kissing boys, and then I caught a snooze. Come see my lousy catcher's mitt: a wonder to behold! I've never caught a single ball, and now I've caught a cold!
